Breath Core & Pelvic Floor: Connect To Your Deep Center

  • The Portland Yoga Project 129 Newbury Street Portland, ME, 04101 United States (map)

Saturday, November 15 from 1:30pm-3:00pm

with Dr. Jenn Gelfand at PYP DOWNTOWN

During your exercise classes, do you hear “engage your pelvic floor” and wonder what that really means? Do you find yourself asking “what is the pelvic floor?” and “why does it matter?” Have you been told to “just do your kegels” but feel unsure where to start — or if kegels are even the right solution for you? Maybe you’ve experienced leaking, urgency, or core instability. Or perhaps you’re pregnant or postpartum and curious about how to participate in your favorite movement classes while optimizing your pelvic health. If so, this workshop is for you.

In this 90-minute class, you’ll explore the anatomy and function of your deep core and pelvic floor, discover why your breath matters, and learn how these systems work together to support strength, balance, and ease. You’ll be guided through breath awareness, gentle core activation, and yoga-based movement practices designed to integrate pelvic health into daily life and the classes you already enjoy.

The workshop will close with restorative postures and guided relaxation, giving you space to connect inward and release. You’ll leave with a handout of cues, simple home practices, and resources for continued pelvic health support. This class is open to all bodies and levels — whether you’re seeking healing, curious about your core, or looking to enhance your practice with deeper awareness.
